Watching someone walk out of my life does not make me bitter or cynical about love. But rather makes me realize that if I wanted so much to be with the wrong person, how beautiful it will be when the right person comes along.

Anais Nin once said:"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."

Mr.Wijaya is 90 years old & married for 70 years. Even when he is sick, he refused hospital treatment because nobody will take care of his ill 85 years old wife, who suffered kidney failure & multiple health problems at home.

His dedication to his wife and her well being is above all else
including his own being. During the past 5 years, there were many
occasions where he was sick, his family would admit him to the hospital for him
to receive treatment after which he
received a medical infusion, he would feel better & barged out of the
bed & ask to go home.

This happened many times in many years & everyone
were confused why he would do so. One time he couldn't breath and they rushed him to the hospital, in which after two hours he asked to go home again. His daughter broke down in tears and asked him
why he wants to go home before he gets better.

He answered softly:

"Because your mother is at home alone and no one is taking care of her."

One day, for the first time he is in
the hospital bed, sick, barely able to speak, with his wife at his
side. Through out all of their 70 years together, it was always him
standing by her side when she is sick. When she can't eat, he would try
to sit by her side and feed her. When she doesn't have the strength to
walk to the wash room, he would walk straight up with all his strength
battling intense joint pains and walk her slowly to the wash room. When
she was hospitalized, he would get up at 5 a.m. every day and visit her
at the hospital.

Unfortunately, old Chinese people are not very open
towards speaking their feeling towards/about their loved one. As such
he didn't told anyone a story about how they met, how much he loves her and
how they got together.

For me, his action speaks much louder than words and
throughout the years the unconditional love he has given to his wife, his children and all his grand children are all the proof that groovy kind of love does exist.

P/S

To you whom I have met, for me, if two person is in love, it is infinite. I fell in love with you whenever we were together, then fell deeper in love with you in the months we were apart.

Long-distance relationship is hard. Before this, I'd always thought the words 'love' belongs to other man, but I bet you must have read my mind, and we fell in love.

Dear Sabrina, sometimes, on our way through the paradise called world, we meet someone who touches our heart in a way others don't. I hope I will always be someone who touch your heart, in a special way.

Until then, 388 love notes here still couldn't described how much I miss you here. Waiting for the time to see you again, my other half of sky.

Khalil Gibran once said:"For life & death are one, even as the river & the sea are one."

What if your partner forget the sweet memories? What if he or she
forget the sweet embrace as a result of Alzheimer? The
touching story of Bill Forward & Glad Forward in Florida, United
States of America enduring love through Alzheimer's has captured the
hearts of people around the world. Bill made a short video documenting the love of him & his beloved wife, Glad and uploaded to YouTube. Simply
titled "What Is Love?" the video tells the story of Bill and Glad, how
they met more than 50 years ago and the daily battle with Glad's
advance stages of Alzheimer's. In the video, Bill tells of how he has to
do everything for his wife, from the time she gets up until when they
go to bed - from brushing her teeth to dressing and feeding her."I don't count it a burden whatsoever,'' he says. "I count it a great privilege to care for this one I have loved all these years.'' he added. The
couple, who spent much of their lives working to help lepers and
orphans in India and Romania, met through Glad's brother, who was
friends with Bill. He first knew her when she was about eight. In few
months, they will celebrate their 50th anniversaries together.
It has been breaking my heart to watch Glad wither away over the last
few years but it has also astounded me how Bill has gently cared for
her. Perhaps, a groovy kind of love is the best words to describe their
love.P/STo
you whom I have met, love is a trembling happiness for me. 387 notes
for you since the past three years still couldn't describe my feeling
towards you.Long-distance
relationship is hard for both of us. But I hope in the dew of
loneliness, our heart will always finds its morning and refreshed day by
day. Never give up & built a wall between our love as a result of
distance my hummingbird. If our heart is a dull wall, we can't expect
the flower of love to blossom.I love
you Sabrina & the best thing about being in love with you was for
every date we enjoyed together, it feels like the first time.Until
then, put in your heart the fact that I had fallen in love with you way
before we knew and met each other. If 3 years ago, my mind told me, 'it
might be you', now my mind said, 'it must be you". Until we say the next hello,The Half Moon Serenades.
